Sounds great, no room for existential doubt, no parents being disappointed in you, you are a door. It is a great privilege to be the doorman
[https://www.odditycentral.com/news/door-head-ants-use-their-large-flat-heads-as-doors-to-shut-down-their-nests.html](Here is a short article on them.) According to the article, they stand their ground, even while their head is under attack. Pretty neat ants!
Interestingly, turtle ants aren’t in door-mode at all times. You can see the entrance to their nests open, but as soon as they sense danger, be it a top on the wooden wall of their tunnel, or pheromones of an enemy, the door is immediately plugged shut.
I'm glad they get breaks.
At least he's a valued member of the comunity
Cyclocosmia as well

That's Secretary of Tunnel Affairs Cyclocosmia, you peasant! You're getting stamped for that!
Wtf how does the pattern look so scary
Other species, too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phragmosis
Hey at least he HAS a purpose.
Too late!

That's not bad as long everyone gets the same share. If you are just the door and get less than it gets to be a problem.
"Look I clearly ordered a circular frame with a 0,3 diameter. What the hell am I supposed to do with this "doorframe" monstrosity? It's bigger than the tree itself for crying out loud, let alone it being a square! Wtf!?"
TBF literally nothing could spoil GoT more than it's actual ending.
I haven't seen a horrific derailment like that since True Blood season 3.
For ants, it probably doesn't get more special and important (other than being queen).
Alternative spin: you are the guardian of the hive, only you have been given the genetic power from the queen to protect us when our enemies are at the door, we all rely on you. Also I don't think ants can build doors!
You pass butter.
